Early in the morning something happened that led to her disappearance. Foul play is suspected.

"Maddy everyone really misses you. I hope you know how special you are. I am hoping that one day your friends that were with you at the party remember the friendship you gave them. Ponder their memories as it is impossible for that many people to be there that are your friends and not one of them know where you are????? I find that hard to believe that no one has yet remembered where you disappeared to so many months ago now." wrote C.K. on the blog Help Find Madison Scott. 

Her family has offered a $100,000 reward for information that solves the mystery of her disappearance and brings any wrong-doers to justice.

Blogs, posters and intense RCMP investigation have not solved the 5-year-old mystery. (CBC)
